Degand Emerging
The key to this season for NC State was getting effective play from the PG position. Overall, Farnold Degand, Javier Gonzalez, and Julius Mays have not performed at the level NC State needed to make the NCAA tournament.

And so it begins…NC State’s starting point guard sidelined with knee injury
Another season, another injury to a key component of the Wolfpack’s program. I wish that I didn’t have to bump all of the great football-related entries that precede this…but, we can’t just leave this out there now that we have a little ‘official’ clarity. After one game of the season, Farnold Degand already has tendinitis […]
